Core Tip Gluten, once viewed solely as a gastrointestinal concern, is now implicated in a wide spectrum of hepatic disorders ranging from mild hypertransaminasemia to cirrhosis. Up to 40% of patients with celiac disease and 9% of those with unexplained elevated liver enzymes may have underlying gluten sensitivity. A gluten-free diet normalizes transaminase levels in most cases, yet long-term adherence may paradoxically exacerbate metabolic liver disease. This article elucidates the complex interplay between gluten, gut permeability, immune activation, and liver pathology. Recognizing gluten’s hepatic implications is crucial for early screening, tailored dietary management, and prevention of progressive liver injury in at-risk individuals.
